I really can't agree that the primary focus of school is academics over everything. Primary focus of elementary school is learning to socialize. Primary focus of high school is learning to manage responsibilities. Even college the primary focus is networking. People complain about not learning how to cook or do taxes in school all the time, but they must not have paid attention, because school provides all the skills that are needed to perfect those relatively easy tasks.
- kiba 6y agoThey do? That's news to me.
- colinmhayes 6y agoShould've paid more attention I guess. Taxes is literally just reading instructions and adding some numbers plus multiplying them. Cooking is just reading instructions. Following instructions is exactly what you learn to do in school.
- kiba 6y agoI don't see how high school does anything for learning responsibility. You go to school, do work, get grade. Same thing we did in middle school and in elementary school. Except more bullshit and people giving you way too much homework.
